Any of you fellas that converted the front to coil overs ever thought about fabricating mounts to sell? Would save others time and make you some money. Just a thought I had. If I had my own welder Id be doing it.

I can burn you some out and send them with the payment for the lenses if you would like.....if I had pictures I would send them, but I don't yet.

I would like to have some of these mounts too. Then, I could get my truck up in the air for 33's to go under. :twisted:

one note about coil overs if you are wanting to go up.....the space inside the A-arm decreases when the angle gets greater........
to get the coil over in there I had to jack the A-arm up.
sooooo.......that might not be the route you want to go..... :(

That's cool, thanks for the info. The need of a solid axle in the front is becoming more and more apparent. I was hoping it wouldn't come to that, but...

I can not still make the mounts, however I do have the drawing for them. If you find a fabrication shop with a plasma table, or water jet table that will cut them out for you, I will send you a file they can work with.

Hey,Luv4me just wanted to say thanks again for the coil over brackets you sent me in 2004.The brackets you sent me are by far the way to go.(Makes a tough job easy and clean)Truck runs 10.10 front wheels up 12" and 1.35-1.38 60ft times. Totally street legal.If I only knew how to put a picture on here.
